Description
SysTools Outlook Duplicate Remover is a dedicated software tool designed to help Outlook users clean up duplicate items (emails, contacts, calendar entries, tasks, notes, journals) in their Outlook data files (PST, OST, and BAK). The presence of duplicate items can inflate mailbox size, slow down Outlook performance, and create confusion for users. This tool aims to simplify and automate the cleanup process while preserving data integrity.

Duplicate Removal Modes
Within Folder Mode: Remove duplicates inside a single folder.
Across Folders Mode: Detect & remove duplicates across multiple folders to ensure no redundant item remains.

Multiple PST/OST/BAK files can be processed in one go, saving time and effort when managing many archives.
Advanced Filters & Customisation
Filter by date range, subject, sender, recipient, and other email properties to control which duplicates get removed.
